• Delete all plus recommend fellow Newport players Jacob Giles, Craig Hughes, Lee John and Paul Cochlin for the same reason. пﮟოьεԻ 57 09:14, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
• CommentIf it can be shown that Barry Town were fully professional in the 1990s there could be grounds for keeping Craig Hughes. None of the others seem to meet WP:FOOTY/Notability and should be deleted. King of the NorthEast 10:53, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Good point. This BBC article suggests that they turned professional in 1995, and this one shows that they still were in 2003. I have denominated Hughes as a result. пﮟოьεԻ 57 12:15, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
    • Paul Cochlin's article says he played for Carmarthen Town in the UEFA Cup. That would imply a first team appearance as well as Carmarthen Town being the top of the Welch Premier League. I will nominate the remaining two players. GauchoDude (talk) 23:57, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
      • Carmarthen have never finished higher that 4th [1], and aren't fully pro (they only qualified for UEFA as runners-up in the Welsh Cup. Cochlin's article should be deleted. пﮟოьεԻ 57 08:20, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
        • I have now added him. GauchoDude (talk) 09:03, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

• Not to be confused with Orenthal James Simpson. Mandsford (talk) 16:16, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
• I am pretty sure no one is making that mistake. However, yes, this is not O.J. Simpson, lol. I'm pretty sure the decision was a resounding delete, not sure why this is up here again, but it's still a delete in my book since I proposed it in the first place.
